Mukwonago, WI-- Residents in southern Wisconsin have some cleaning up to do after Monday's strong thunderstorms left behind damage.

The storms brought heavy rain and high winds that knocked down several trees in Mukwonago.

One large tree lost a limb that narrowly missed a house.

There were also tree limbs scattered on lawns and some roads.

Fortunately, no injuries were reported.

Residents said the storm clouds moved in quickly, turning partly cloudy skies very dark.

According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, a tornado reported Monday afternoon in Waukesha County was confirmed by the National Weather Service.

The tornado traveled just southwest of Mukwonago and packed winds of 65 miles per hour.

I live 5 minutes south of the center of Eagle and went into town after the storm had passed and there's trees and power lines down. Several houses are gone...in a small town like this of only 2000 you know everyone and I can't get a hold of some of my friends.
